Black Ops 4 - Getting P2P Only? Post Here!

Recommended Posts

NEW UPDATE: our Cloud optimisation tool has just completed for Xbox and PC too now. It also has new improvements for PS4. These changes will automatically install on your router within the next 24 hours, but if you would like to force your Cloud to update, please do the following:
Go to your Geo-Filter
Open the Geo-Filter Map Options (click the three horizontal lines in the top left of the panel)
Click 'Flush Cloud'
Wait about 30 seconds - 45 second for the Flush to complete. Don't worry if you see a message that says '"Error: The operation is taking longer than expected. Please briefly wait before using this R-App" - this is just a default popup that appears when something is taking a while to complete on DumaOS. Just clear the message and wait another 30 seconds for the new Cloud to complete its installation in the background
Once complete, make sure you're happy with your other Geo-Filter settings e.g. home location, radius, Ping Assist on the R1 etc.
Now restart Black Ops 4
Now play some games. The vast majority, if not all, servers will now be correctly located which should mean you consistently get dedicated servers again.
Don't worry if a server sometimes shows as a 'Peer' - there are still servers that we have not yet categorised as servers. This will be the next objective. If you want to know if you're on a server for sure, click the start menu within a game and click on the Network option. Near the bottom is an encrypted sequence of letters and numbers. If this ends in the letter e, it almost certainly means you are on a server.

What is strange is the auto ping said no host to ping for most of the game and then dedicated and peer popped up throughout the game. Admin any thoughts on this. I'll see if i can get a recording of this.

It is a dedicated because the tickrate is 60+. Peer hosts are limited to 20.

Okay thats good, it may be that it was just unable to ping the host which can sometimes happen.

Don't worry just wait a minute after flushing and refresh the page and it will have applied. Then try the game, boot up with 2000km radius, then lower in game if you want and see if you have a better experience.

I had this before and you couldn't ping the host as you are the host this is P2P see my pictures on previous page when I backed out it said host migration.

Ok so now DumaOS is working for me, but only if I set the geo-filter to Max before starting the game. After the game is started I reduce the geo-filter to the lowest setting in the ocean and my PA is set to 35. Tested an hour and it is working so far.

Hi John, there was a dedicated server in Ireland popping up for me (see my first image). I don't see a dedicated server on your images. With that being said, I'm not sure auto-ping is fully working how it should (beta). I had different peers pop up on auto-ping during the game, I will monitor this for the next couple of days and report back.

Ive noticed some games it will appear as a peer connection but the server has an "e" at the end in game. Doesnt that mean its a dedicated server so is it possible just false readings on the filter?

Yes they can be misclassified as peers, can you provide the ID please and we can correctly mark it

Great to hear that!

Hey 🙂 ive read on a earlier post the one in Ireland is a something to do with a authentication that is all. And I'm pretty sure the circles dashes in the GEO filter means it's a peer to peer. And if it's a solid cicle line it's a dedicated? Someone will correct me if I'm wrong tho.

Dashed circle just means it's been ping assisted. Solid line means either whitelisted or manually allowed

The new cloud version should fix this but it takes a little while to propagate.

So I'm really confused here about the new cloud update. Even though it has fixed the issues for me to get into games, pretty much all dedicated server locations are still misplaced. Was this supposed to be the massive cloud update?
